Four Reasons the Despise Democrates
The Closet Conservative ^ | 9/28/2004 | w1tness

Posted on 09/28/2004 7:15:46 AM PDT by w1tness

Excert from a new blog:

When folks do discover a conservative leaning during cocktail conversation about, say, the upcoming elections, I justify Why I Am Not A Democrat by naming these four:

1. Dan Rather 2. Michael Moore 3. Jamie Gorelick 4. Sandy Berger

In each case, we have an example of extreme--indeed maximum--arrogance in their own sense of exceptionalism regarding fairness and the truth. Each has committed a crime or impropriety greater than that of Nixon who, remember, suffered more because of the cover up than the actually petty crime of busting into the DNC (something that happens all the time now electronically, I am sure). And in each case, but espeically in the cases of the first three, we have people who think of themselves as the great Do Gooders of the World, for whom the ends justify the means.

The greatest outrage is Rather's, though. Moore is an buffoon and most people know that--even the Democrat friends of mine. But rather--to blame has lies and outright deceit on--bloggers! Thank God for the blogosphere, without which this jackass would remained the unexposed propaganda machine that he is now proven to be, although we always knew it.

That is right we conservatives like to debunk fruit cake like moore, that like to tilt the camera to their angle, with fact to back up our assertions.

Only four? I can think of a lot more reasons that that!

The writing style is strikingly similar to a guy who was here yesterday, warning about "sabotage". ;D

I have a nice spell checker to sell you: $23.95... or you could use the *free* one next to the Preview button. I re-read that headline 4x, and just got a headache. Maybe the Admin Mods can fix it for you?

Democrate: From the Greek demo, meaning "people" and crate, meaning "box." Hence, literally "people box." Used to describe the one-size-fits-all philosophy espoused by many on the Left.

I've never cared for demo crates. When I box things up, I prefer real crates.

I thought Democrates was one of the ancient Greek playwrights. ;D
